I hope this post finds you well and warm.
The card I have for today has its inspiration from The Paper Players Challenge #227 (Which by the way was my dorm room number in college.). On my own, I would have never put these colors together but they work fabulously together!
The bokeh background was done using a green-blue base then used lost lagoon by Stampin' Up! to layer the dots for the bokeh pattern. Then a final coat of blue for the foreground.
The 'crisp cantaloupe' was more of a challenge. I don't have that color on hand BUT I do have Blendabilities Pumpkin Pie and Melon Mambo. I colored the roses by blending those colors together and just love the way it turned out.
Embossed the ferns in tan, added a border, and finally the sentiment which I think is very fitting.
Well enough chit chat here it is..

Love, Love, Love how the roses came out! It isn't 'crisp cantaloupe' but a little 'pumpkin pie' and 'melon mambo' will go a long way. |
All the best,
